CONFOUNDING CONSUMPTION

Laura is critic about excess consumtion in Christmas time in her recent post.

But I guess the notion of always wanting more is so innate in us that we don't require a convincing event or festivity to consume beyond our ability.

Richa has written an article in the Daily Star Magazine describing how getting ready for children school can create a competition of consumption among the mothers, who accompanies them. An interesting slice of life of the riches in Bangladesh.
